The Next Margaret Thatcher?

Here's a howler - Nancy Pelosi as Margaret Thatcher.

"Not to get personal about it, but the president's capacity to lead has never been there. In order to lead, you have to have judgment. In order to have judgment, you have to have knowledge and experience. He has none,'' Pelosi declared. "He's gone,'' "He's so gone.''
"He has on his shoulders the deaths of many more troops, because he would not heed the advice of his own State Department of what to expect after May 1, when he ... declared that major combat is over,'' Pelosi charged. "The shallowness that he has brought to the office has not changed since he got there."

This flash of rhetoric so inspired representative David Obey, that he called her, "our Maggie Thatcher. She's tough as hell -- and has a very nice style to her."

If Nancy Pelosi is the next Margaret Thatcher, then why did CBS edit out her most embarassing remarks and only report her as saying. "The emperor has no clothes. When are people going to face the reality? Pull this curtain back."

In fact, as Brent Bozell notes, the leftist media treats Pelosi as the crazy aunt in the attic that nobody wants to talk about.
